Start of the digital dash

[blue missile]

Here is the start of the dash for the Missile.
I am still waiting for the return of three of the gauges I sent back for re-labeling, and the air/fuel gauge which is being worked on. This is try number two for re-labeling.
I still have to make the turn signals and the two indicators for the laser detector and the security system.
I have all the parts just need to fire up the soldering iron.

Just a quick update on the small amount of progress.
I have spent way too many days on trying to put together a digital keypad for the car.I have successfully toasted the circuits out of two digital safes, to no avail.

I also pulled the dash and finished the metal work and fitting of the AC vents and the digital panel. I also built the speaker mount for two 4" driver to replace the single factory speaker.
I am happy to say the defrost vents do clear the backs of the gauges and the heads up display for the radar detector.
